Ranting Out Loud: An LGBTQ+ perspective on life, love, politics and chaos episodes

  • Vance Visits Vatican. What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

    Chaos reigns supreme as Chadrick recounts his dramatic faceplant courtesy of a mischievous puppy (and two flower pots). Meanwhile, Mike takes aim at the political circus, from Combat Barbie's misplaced purse scandal to J.D. Vance breaking trophies and maybe even the pope. Lee keeps it classy—well, until the tornado talk gets witchy. Sprinkle in some commentary on Catholic rituals, dramatic neighbors, and overpriced eggs, and you've got an episode packed with snark, laughs, and a little blasphemy. 🌈🐾 #FallingForDogs #CombatBarbieDrama #SnarkAndSacrilege

  • An Easter Basket Case

    Get ready for a wild ride as Ranting Out Loud tackles everything from roadside disasters to divine absurdities. Lee's $900 flat tire fiasco sets the stage for a show packed with laughs, including Chadrick's Easter candy confessions and Mike's blasphemous take on "Hamburger Jesus." Plus, we explore the all-female Blue Origin spaceflight, Coachella cameos, and why Bernie Sanders outpaces Democrats half his age. Sprinkle in a little snark about JD Vance breaking trophies and some unfiltered thoughts on political battles, and you've got an episode that's equal parts hilarious and heretical. 🌈🚀 #HamburgerJesus #SpaceQueens #RantAndRave

  • Crocodile Undie and Other Tariff-ic Things

    This week on Ranting Out Loud, we're diving into the ridiculous and the risqué.

    Get ready for a hilarious deep dive into the week's wildest moments on Ranting Out Loud.

Add in some popper-fueled insights and a good roast of hypocrisy, and you've got an episode that's equal parts chaos and comedy.

  • Erin Go Braugh-less

    Top o' the morning to ya—unless you're Target, Tesla, or Trump! This week on Ranting Out Loud, Chadrick recounts his boozy St. Patrick's Day scavenger hunt (complete with leprechaun chases and margarita flights), while Lee laments the corporate colonization of space (paging Elon Musk and his fireworks company). Producer Mike brings the snark, diving into the collapse of DEI at Target, Tesla stock tanking faster than MAGA credibility, and the petty chaos of Trump's vendettas—from Rosie O'Donnell to the Obama library. It's hilarious, infuriating, and unapologetically inebriating. ☘️🍸 #ShamrocksAndShade #TeslaTwats #ErinGoBraughless

    Join Lee, Chadrick, and Producer Mike as they unleash their trademark snark on everything from political fiascos to bizarre everyday absurdities.

Expect rants on low-information voters, outrageous celebrity mishaps, and why, in these chaotic times, our only option is to laugh it off while prepping for spring. It's funny, it's fierce, and it's unapologetically LGBTQ. Get ready to rant, rave, and roll your eyes with us! #TwatWaffles #UFOFrenzy #RantingOutLoud

Chadrick rages over Hulu's Oscar fail (justice for Best Actress announcements!), Lee geeks out over ruby slippers and cinematic trivia, and Mike serves up some spicy snark about Musk's parenting-as-PR strategy. The gang dives into the politics of award shows, the dangers of cheerleading conferences, and why Timothy Chalamet's butter-yellow suit has them all swooning. Plus, is a singalong version of Wicked a cute idea or an off-key nightmare? Tune in for fashion, flair, and plenty of fabulous rants. 🎭🌈 #OscarsButMakeItGay #RubySlippersForever #RantingOutLoud

  • How Much Are Eggs at the Twatwaffle House?

    Grab your Dr. Pepper (and maybe some vodka), because this week on Ranting Out Loud, the gang dives headfirst into chaos—complete with audio echoes and plenty of snark. Chadrick rails against Apple (but begrudgingly supports them for the gays), Mike introduces us to "twatwaffles" (our new official insult for corrupt politicians), and Lee is ready to take down Texas' discriminatory antics one wheelchair ramp at a time. Plus, we unpack Easter egg inflation, marriage equality threats, and why Baby Jessica still owes us an apology for interrupting Designing Women. It's messy, it's fabulous, and it's unapologetically queer. 🌈🎙️ #TwatWaffleTuesday #EggFlation #GayRantsUnleashed
